Observing moving objects stimulates hunting behavior even in completely indoor cats. Feline vision is specially adapted for tracking rapid movements, making windows ideal places for skill training. Territorial control instinct forces cats to patrol their domain through glass. Windows serve as environmental enrichment sources for apartment-dwelling cats. Need for stimulation of all senses is satisfied through windows via incoming sounds, scents and visual images. Cat thermoregulation requires seeking warm spots created by sunlight from windows. Stress in cats decreases when able to observe external environment from safe places. Veterinary cat behavior includes necessity of visual contact with surrounding world for psychological wellbeing. Cat owners need to understand these requirements for creating comfortable living environments.
